I just meant it for this reason... if a casual fan sees this game is between a 1-5 and a 2-3 team, it might not be enough to pique their interest to watch.

Maybe a hyped up crowd on TV and some offensive fireworks will help.

Would be nice if that happened.

Troy might have some offensive fireworks, but right now USA has only showed offensive sparklers.

Wait...there's football on Wednesday night? Man, this makes my day!

That was when it was on a Friday - a terrible night for a college game in our part of the country. I can only hope our “bye” has helped us. I don’t see where the extra time would hurt us, but I certainly don’t want to challenge the football gods and find out what that would look like if it doesn’t! Haha.

The student section will be jam packed, I know that.

Is USA bringing any busses with students like previous years?

It looks like we are bringing 5 student buses in addition to our band.

I don't even think USA has had 5 buses of fans show up for their home games.

South Alabama running game is unreal. Got stuffed on 6 consecutive plays within the 10. 1-2-3 an goal....stuffed each play. Then it happened again. They look good so far other than the inability to do anything within the 10.

We need some better line play. Looks like South is playing better offensively. Kinda find a way to run the ball on short yardage.

Somebody explain to the QBs that you throw to the guy wearing the same uniform as the one he's wearing.

Where's the Fun in that ??

This has been a really fun game to watch!

I've thought this for the last few games. I suspected it when he lost the handle on the ball during our game with Troy. Barker is hurt. He has a screwed up hand like our QB, Bonner, had. They need to get him to a doctor.

Our defense needs to create another turnover for an easy score. Cephus needs to be more careful with the ball.

Me watching South 's QB:

The WR should have caught that ball.

Literally in his hands

Defense stepped up and got the ball back. We need a TD this drive.

Man, can't anyone catch the ball?

Hard to catch the ball when you get a helmet to the face. The other guys have no excuse though.
